This pattern is also available as part of my new e-book Espiral: a progressive Eco-friendly e-book 5 original shawl designs + 1 bonus pattern (also a shawl design).

Oliva is a sweet asymmetrical shawl, knitted bias in one piece, totally seamless. It starts with a few stitches that gradually increase in number. The main body is worked in garter stitch with a lovely lace detail in the inner edging.
